@AlbinoMutant @DK_Dharmaraj @Turkleton @RowdyRamzan @admin @dave Andrei Martyanov has compared it to a naval battle, where the object is not to "take territory" in the flat plains, but to trash the enemy's hardware and meatware. The Russians and NATO swapping ruined abandoned towns is not conclusive to the eventual outcome of the conflict.

I have no military training, and was not interested in this stuff until recently, but I would think the Zog strategerists would have studied the Russian way of war. Go ahead and try to invade Moscow as the winter closes in. The Russians will watch you drown in mud, freeze your asses off, and laugh.

I also expect Russia to take the velvet gloves off now. I think the Zog fantasy was a "Russian Vietnam", a never-ending war of attrition. And I don't think it will last all that much longer.

I have mentioned it before, and will say again, it is my hope that Zog's nuclear arsenal has been on the same diligent maintenance program as the Pennsylvania Turnpike, and when those assholes push the 'big red button' nothing much will happen. Ol' Major Kong will just crash into the ground and make a smallish radioactive mess.
